Knockdhu Scott's Selection Single Malt Scotch Whisky 22 Year Old · 1974 Vintage
Out of stock
A single cask Knockdhu bottled by Scott’s Selection, this 22 year old was distilled in 1974 and bottled in 1996 at a natural cask strength of 64% ABV after maturation in oak.
Long ageing and high strength give a concentrated expression of Knockdhu’s character, where fresh orchard fruit and malt sweetness are supported by firm oak, spice and a fuller texture. Independent bottlings from Scott’s Selection are often known for presenting whisky at natural strength, allowing the distillery character and cask influence to show with minimal intervention.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold highlights and mahogany undertones
Nose
Fresh orchard fruits, apple and pear, lift malt sweetness while firm oak adds spice and depth. At natural cask strength, the aroma is concentrated, with vanilla and cinnamon mingling with a seasoned, oak-driven edge.
Palate
Concentrated and full-bodied, this delivers bright orchard fruit—apple and pear—woven with malt sweetness. A firm oak backbone supports spicy notes—white pepper, nutmeg, a hint of clove—creating a warm, layered palate. At natural cask strength, it coats with a silky, robust texture, finishing long with oak, spice and a lingering fruity sweetness.
Finish
Long and warming, this finish carries fresh orchard fruit and malt sweetness into firm oak and spice. At natural strength the tail remains full and textured, lingering with Knockdhu’s character well after the sip ends.
